파주 갈대 샛강 생태적 복원을 위한 식생구조 모니터링 연구

Abstract

In this study vegetation structure was monitored focusing on slanting surface of stream for the purpose of developing a management plan and ecological restoration of small stream in Paju. The study was conducted by types of geographical structure, yearly flora, naturalization rate changes, actual vegetation changes, plant community changes. Slope area of small stream in Paju was varied in the slope range of <TEX>$10{\sim}35^{\circ}$</TEX>. The survey results of yearly flora showed that 37 species appeared in 2000, 55 species in 2001, 95 species in 2002, and 125 species in 2003. Therefore, the trend of continuous increase of flora each year was observed. In the case of yearly changes of actual vegetation, indigenous wetland herb community including Phragmites communis<TEX>$(19.99%{\rightarrow}18.42%{\rightarrow}19.60%)$</TEX> did not show substantial changes in the area, while the influence of controlled flora such as Humulus scandens<TEX>$(8.86%{\rightarrow}5.26%{\rightarrow}9.73%)$</TEX>, and Ambrosia artemisiifolia<TEX>$(1.06%{\rightarrow}1.43%{\rightarrow}6.93%)$</TEX> were increased. The vegetation structure investigated by 18 preset belt-transects also indicated that Phragmites communis and Miscanthus sacchariflorus were maintaining the status or decreasing the population, while the population of Humulus scandens, Ambrosia artemisiifolia, Setaria viridis, and Erigeron canadensis were greatly increased. Our proposal management to restore ecology is as follows: first, preservation and restoration of Phragmites communis landscape; second, restoration of potential stream vegetation community; third, selection and removal of controlled plants.
